Its fun to see seeds planted start to grow; soon there'll be a need to weed, to protect the few that can blossom to their full potential. There is an argument that weeds too need to live; sorry, but I do not subscribe to that point of view.

Hope, Fear, Excitement, Anguish, Relief..these are but a few of the emotions that you can expect in the coming month...I purposely leave out happiness because there will only be a few who will genuinely be happy, in spite of the multitudes that will claim to be so.

Its a special time for us too, and by us , you know who I mean..Culmination of days and nights and hours and hours of mental and physical toil...all culminating on the pinnacle of that day, and no, its not the one that you are thinking of....its another day altogether, one that will invariably be later than the one thought of..

Its tough to write without letting emotions go, so I think I shall stop now...

Remember this:

Sacrifice still exists everywhere, and everywhere the elect of each generation suffers for the salvation of the rest.
